about

A reimagining of music from the great Miles Davis's last great period: the mid-1970s work that redefined the merging of jazz with rock, funk, and the avant-garde. Winner of the 2013 Independent Music Award as Best Tribute Album. Includes the group originals, "Mad Love, Pts. 1 & 2."

"Saxophonist Chris Kelsey and his co-conspirators on The Electric Miles Project (guitarists Rolf Sturm and Jack DeSalvo; bassist Joe Gallant; drummer Dean Sharp) are some kind of brave and crazy. They have tackled some of the most wild-assed work of Miles Davis’ career in a manner that comes across as being both respectful and fearless – and the end result is an album that feels more like the next chapter for these tunes rather than a look-back-over-the-shoulder tribute."
- Brian Robbins, Relix/Jambands.com
